Don’t you love it when you come up with a design and it just gels together!!? I have always adored vintage cards that use Sheet Music! Stampin’ Up! has answered that obsession by offering the Sheet Music Background stamp! Just think of all the music lovers in your life and the possibilities this one stamp could give you!

To make this card even better, I paired it with the tree from the Winter Woods stamp set! And, there is the In the Woods Framelit collection that helps you cut the tree out in a snap! (this card would be a great one to reproduce for your seasonal card this year) And for a bonus tip: paper save by using your Smoky Slate mat as your surface to stamp your greeting. Once you punch it out and adhere the sheet music piece on top, no one will know!

I used Wink of Stella clear on the white areas of the tree image for an extra sparkle. I used the Under the Mistletoe DSP for this card-but any 1″ piece from your Christmas stash will do! I liked the DSP because it coordinated so well with the Shaded Spruce card base. ( I LOVE THIS COLOR)

Now for some serious business. If you have the following items on your wish list, you need to get them ASAP! This catalog has been so popular that we are running low on these and will not have time to re stock before the catalog’s end date. (and for your Christmas creations). Take a look at the graphic and following list. Please go to my site and get your items.

Do you love the farmhouse style? I absolutely love it! It was the first suite I was drawn to in the Stampin’ Up! Holiday Catalog! The Tin Tile Embossing Folder has amazing details and using the new Galvanized Silver Foil Sheet makes it pop!

Moving on to the tree! It comes from the In the Woods dies! I love how it creates parts of the tree that are 3-D. I saw. Post on Patty Bennett’s site about using your Spritzer with rubbing alcohol and some Frost White Shimmer Paint. The results are amazing!

This picture does to do the tree justice! The Champagne Mist color is very elegant as well! (think Wink of Stella on steroids) To finish the card, I added some 5/8″ Striped Burlap Trim, a Galvanized Button, some Linen Thread, and a sentiment!

This was a stamp a stack card this past weekend. I cut and spritzed the trees for them so there isn’t a log jam at the Big Shot. But the end result makes it worth it!

Confession! After using the Big Shot for over 10 years, I have never ruined a die. Well, I put the die and the paper on top of the sandwich. I ran it through thinking it felt and sounded odd. I completely bowed the die!!!!! It was my first of 32 to make! I cut the rest out with the warped die. Then, I flipped it and ran it through incorrectly again. I was so nervous! But to my surprise, it flattened it out! Like it never happened! Shew!!

Que up the Christmas cards! I saw the Dashing Deer bundle in the New Holiday Catalog and I had to have it! I made this card for my stamp clubs this month! I was very happy that the detail inside the deer remained after using Versa Mark and Gold Embossing Powder. Looks so majestic!!

I paired it with a strip of paper from the Dashing Along Designer Series Paper! You should see the patterns in this pack! Just gorgeous!! And you get 4 of each of the 6 designs (2 sided/12 pages)

Next, I added some texture by running a piece of Garden Green through the Big Shot using the Swirls & Curls embossing folder! Then I stamped the scroll with Crumb Cake color on color on the top and bottom. To create the flowing banner, I used my Bone Folder to curl the middle of the sentiment piece. I curled the ends the opposite direction and added 2 layers of dimensionals in the center to help it keep its shape. I finished the card off with a bow made from the Cherry Cobbler Festive Farmhouse Cotton Twine.

For your order of $50 or more, I will mail you the Festive Farmhouse Cotton Twine for FREE! ($8 value)! Be sure to use September’s HOST code DBD2NF34 at check out! (deadline 9/30/18).

I am off to a craft retreat for this holiday weekend! I can’t wait to be with my crafting friends! Stay tuned for LOTS of new creations!

I am so ready for fall! This is the fifth card that I have made with the Blended Seasons bundle! I used the cut out from my previous card to create this simple fall card! We are making it tonight at my Sweet & Simple card class!

To create this beauty:

Stamp the leaves with Early Espresso ink randomly on Soft Suede cardstock.

Stamp thank you on a Crumb Cake piece and run it through the Big Shot with the smallest of the Stitched Seasons label die. (I centered the sentiment more towards the top to leave room for the embellishments)

On a scrap of Very Vanilla, use the Watercolor Assortment #2 and color with Crushed Curry, Cajun Craze, and Granny Apple Green.

Cut out 2 leaves and use Wink of Stella to blend the watercolors.

Tie a bow with 2 pieces of Linen Thread.

Dimensionals were used to pop up the sentiment piece and glue dots for the leaves & Gold Glimmer paper.

August 22nd is the LAST day to get your FREE Card Kit & Creative Class to Go!! Click on the blue link to read on how to get yours today! And it’s Bonus Days too! You will get a $5 coupon from Stampin’ Up! to spend in September for every $50 increment you spend!

During the month of August, you can purchase this versatile Blended Seasons bundle! The stamp set covers fall, Christmas, wedding, and floral images great for any occasion! Plus, the Stitched Seasons Framelits are a must have for cutting out sentiments or adding that extra dimension to your project! To sweeten this deal, Stampin’ Up! added NEW Watercolor Pencil colors too! This whole offering is great for scrapbooking too!

There are 3 different sizes of stitched labels that nestle inside one another. The best part is that the die cuts a stitched outline on both the cut out and the negative! This alone doubles your value creating a frame to tuck in an image or a sentiment. That is what I wanted to showcase with my card today!

My inspiration came from a sample that Stampin’ Up! posted for this bundle. I first off set the smallest of the label framelits and cut out a section of Crumb Cake for the card base. (and kept the cut out for another card). Then, I stamped the leaves in a random pattern using Early Espresso ink. Next, I used various colors from both Watercolor Pencils (assortments 1 & 2) to make fall color leaves. (Crushed Curry, Cajun Craze, Granny Apple Green, Daffodil Delight, Soft Suede, Old Olive) I used a Blender Pen to blend the colors together for a more natural look. I LOVE these watercolor pencils! They blend so easily with blender pens or water. Plus, they look great with out using any blending tools!

I cut out 2 Copper Foil leaves and used a bow of Copper Trim. The sentiment was stamped with Early Espresso as well!

So, go to Laura’s Stampin’ Up! website to order yours today! Use hostess code XJHF9WKS at check out! If you are a new customer, I will send you a thank you gift separate!
